To pass the course, both the course credit and the exam must be completed. The course credit will be awarded upon completion of the homework assignments. The final grade will be based on the results of the exam and the homework assignments.
The open-book exam is in written form. Students are allowed to use a textbook, lecture slide printouts, or the internet. The exam carries the same weight in the final grade as one homework assignment. Last update: Mírovský Jiří, RNDr., Ph.D. (23.05.2025)
